SWABI: National Assembly Speaker Asad Qaiser on Sunday said that Prime Minister Imran Khan will address the nation in the coming week.
He said this while speaking to the media after casting his ballot in Swabi during the by-polls.
The speaker added that voting was being carried out in a transparent manner and expressed satisfaction over the voter turnout.
About the prevalent wave of inflation, Qaiser said it was “temporary”. However, he further said that those misusing the situation and fleecing people would be taken to task.
The incumbent government is facing criticism from political circles due to the current economic situation, which is why the prime minister has decided to take the public in confidence.
Besides, the government has also decided to form a parliamentary commission to identify the people responsible for the current economic crisis in the country. The government will then take action in light of the recommendations provided by the commission.
It was further reported that a resolution regarding the formation of the parliamentary commission has been submitted in the National Assembly Secretariat by Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry.
The information minister is expected to present the resolution in the National Assembly, which states the joint parliamentary commission will present a report regarding the people responsible for the economic crisis in a month’s time.
